     2        "The six ads to which we are committed for February are
     3        listed below.
     4
     5        "Calcium, For Real, We Shop and TFED" -- which is "tossed
     6        fresh every day salad"?
     7        A.  Yes.  I remember the salad one.  I did not see it in
     8        here.  That is why I said I think there were others.
     9
    10   Q.   So this was the continuation, you said, of the campaign,
    11        yes?
    12        A.  Yes.
    13
    14   Q.   The campaign did not back down under pressure from the
    15        Attorneys General?
    16        A.  No.  We continued the campaign.
    17
    18   Q.   Okay.  The "tossed fresh every day" advert was not in the
    19        original series, was it?
    20        A.  No.  I believe that was the salad advertisement and a
    21        regional series occurred before we had gone national.  All
    22        stores had salad available.
    23
    24   Q.   Right.  But that could not be the continuation of the
    25        campaign, could it, because it was a different ad, that
    26        particular one; that was not in the original series?
    27        A.  Yes, I follow your logic; it was not part of the
    28        original.  It was the intent that when salads came out we
    29        would advertise it, but it was not in the original ads.
    30
    31   Q.   The continuation of the campaign were the three immediately
    32        behind that letter -- is that correct -- the For Real, We
    33        Shop and Calcium ones?
    34        A.  Yes.  Again, I am only recalling from my memory, but
    35        I believe there was a beef ad, as well, or something that
    36        had to do with beef, but it obviously is not listed in this
    37        first quarter.  But I seem to remember there was one as
    38        well.
    39
    40   Q.   But that was not one of the ones from the original
    41        campaign; it was not the cholesterol or the----
    42        A.  Again, it may have been similar to this leaner ad.
    43        That is my best recollection, but I cannot tell you for
    44        sure, because I do not remember exactly which ones they
    45        were.  But I do believe there was an ad that had to do with
    46        beef, and it may have been in this format; it may have been
    47        in a different format.
    48
    49   Q.   It might have been similar, yes?
    50        A.  Yes. 
    51 
    52   Q.   Okay.  But the ones that were exactly the same are the 
    53        Calcium, For Real and We Shop; yes?
    54        A.  I do not know whether it would have been exactly the
    55        same, but I know that these are the same.
    56
    57   Q.   These are the same?  Right.  If you look at those three ads
    58        that continued the campaign, can you find any reference in
    59        those three ads to the themes underlying the first campaign
    60        which were: balance, nutrition and McDonald's good food?
